This piece belonged to a friends Grandpa. The main back spring was completely rounded off and there was no action left to it. Both blades had been loved on quite a bit.
I had the main blade tang tig welded and reshaped, lightly cleaned both blades up and returned to 1 happy grandson. Heres a before and after of the knife along with a before picture of the worn tang.
